Sheila: Got daughters birth cert. on there she is Jeannie also got death cert. on that she is Jannie informant was coroner. Her daughter got the death cert. after going to the cemetary to lay flowers but when the cert. came back and had Jannie on it she wondered if she had even put flowers on the right grave hence need to know. Nibbo: Thanks for all your searching, you've certainly found more than I've have. The birth in Woolwich 1929 looks a possibility and matches the death in 1960, I think they may be worth checking out, I'm beginning to think she did what your grandmother did.

Hi Shirley, I know she was young (in her 30's), but I believe home was Camberwell, SE London. She died of TB. Lin

am guessing she was in her 30.s the only one that comes up between 1957 and 1962 is Dec qtr 1957 Jennie F Smith age 34 Watford 4b 330 Watford isnt consistent with Guys Hospital London. However patients go there from all over as its a specialist hospital so it may be her and reg at her home area. Shirley

Apologies to all who have already tried this one for me but thought I'd give it one more go. I have Josiah John Smith born 1921 Camberwell, died 1981. He married Jeannie/Jannie Cunningham who he divorced around 1956 to marry someone else. I need the birth, marriage and death of Jeannie/Jannie. I know she died in Guys Hospital around 1958. All help gratefully received.

Lin Can you clarify the dates please? If she died in 1958, he can't have divorced her in 1960! OC
